1/2/3, Emergency Management) and safety improvements

- Other (qualify)

Gen IV reactors and SMRs:

(define which reactor technology/type is concerned by your reply)

- Core Physics and Thermal Hydraulics

- Development and verification of systems concepts

- Safety Analyses

- Other (qualify)

Other (qualify)



RI Programmes on Energy Scenarios and Fuel Cycles

R&I Programmes on Energy Scenarios and Fuel Cycle

(define which cycle U/Pu - Th/U; and which type of fuel and fuel technology is concerned by your

reply. Fuel type: oxide, metal, nitride, carbide,…; fuel technology: pellets; coated particles;…)

- Energy Scenarios and role of nuclear (ia flexibility in grid)

- Fuel Cycle Strategies and Policies

- Front End Technologies (Mining, Processing, Conversion, Enrichment)

- Fuel/Cladding design and fabrication; improvement of existing and new (innovative) fuel

development

- Fuel irradiation and PIE, analysis of Fuel/Cladding behaviour

- Back End Technologies: Spent Fuel Management (when not considered as waste): Storage,

Reprocessing and Recycling (define the nature of reprocessing and recycling: single vs multiple,

partitioning and transmutation of Minor Actinides,…)

- Others (qualify)



RI Programmes on Waste Management and Decomm

R&I Programmes on Waste Management and Decommissioning

- Decommissioning (excluding waste management) (decontamination, dismantling processes and

tools, land and environment restoration,…)

- High/Medium/Low Level Waste Management and Storage (including SNF as waste) before final

disposal

- Final and Geological Disposal

- Other (qualify)



Cross-cutting RI Programmes

Crosscutting R&I Programmes

- Multiphysics and multiscale modelling of fuels and materials, and validation/benchmarking

- Existing materials ageing (except fuel covered above): testing and prediction of behaviour, in-

service inspection – for metal, concrete, polymers, others.

- New (innovative) material development (except fuel covered above): define which material, what

objective pursued: ia thermal properties, mechanical properties, nuclear properties,…)

- Equipment manufacturing and assembling, modular construction

- Instrumentation and Control (ia digital)

- Harmonisation, Codes and Standards: prenormative research

- Regulatory aspects and Licensing

- Health Effects of radiation and Radiation Protection, Shielding and Transport

E&T, Knowledge Management, and public awareness Programmes in relation with Research

- Number and level of students/postdocs engaged in research programmes (described above)

- Infrastructures (described above or others) used for E&T purposes

- Knowledge Management policies and tools

- Public Communication



Large Infrastructures in support of RI Programmes

Large Research Infrastructures (hardware tools of generic nature/multipurpose in support to R&I

Programmes) - use of existing, upgrade and/or new build (on going or planned)

(give details on the nature, type and scope of the facility, as well as the associated timeline)

- Research Reactors (indicate more precise type and power level)

- Large Demonstrators/Prototypes

- Accelerators

- Large test loops and benches, integral and/or partial experiments

- Fuel Fabrication facility

- Hot Cells

- Fuel Reprocessing facility

- Large calculators/super computers

- Others (qualify)


NI 2050- SURVEY Process: Guide

WHAT ? Technical scope and budgets for the defined categories Q: Technical Scope?... From basic research to applied and experimental, up to « demonstration » (of technical, industrial, licensing feasibility)… + Cooperation ? Q: Budgets? Public vs Private (PPPs)?... National commitment per year Q: Which Costs? Capital and current costs (running and labor costs) when they occur (no depreciation and no VAT) Q: How far in the past?... 2005? Aggregation Q: Future « perspectives » and estimated budgets… first input for roadmapping…



HOW to avoid « double counting »? 1. Programmes versus Infrastructures: cost of specific use of infrastructures to be reported under Programmes limit reported cost of infrastructures to « generic » costs for design/construction/O&M/dismantling of infrastructures, not attributable to a specific Programme



HOW to avoid « double counting »? 2. Country A – Country B Ex: country A using a facility in country B – Country A should report the cost of usage under its corresponding Programme 3. Specific case: Euratom Programmes Commission is asked to report on full cost of projects = Euratom financing + consortia’ members contributions, and to provide the figures per MS


NI 2050- Open Questions for Discussion - Categories and process for step 1 survey? - How far in past + future perspective? - Views for step 2 roadmapping process? - Level for interest for step 3? - China/India? - E&T, KM, HRM? - Public vs Private? - Involve Industry and TSOs? - Visibility of NI2050?


NI 2050: to be succesful: Need commitment by Member Countries: - to provide inputs to the survey (Step 1) - to interact during the roadmapping (Step 2) - to be potentially interested in cooperation frameworks (tbd) (Step 3) Nomination of (one) contact point per MC. Interactions/Meetings/Consultants?
